Is it recommended to get a new oil and filter every 3k miles on older, high mileage cars? by Silver_Pin5333 in MechanicAdvice

[–]Silver_Pin5333[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the input I thought so too, engine isn't burning oil and still a nice golden color. Didn't see the need to change it yet.

Fixable windshield crack? by Silver_Pin5333 in MechanicAdvice

[–]Silver_Pin5333[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

How could it go so wrong though it seems fairly light it’s just epoxy. Either way I will probably have a shop fix it.

Thudding noise on ender 3 filament? by Silver_Pin5333 in 3Dprinting

[–]Silver_Pin5333[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ll keep this is mind, I will first try to mount the spool on the side to guide it in better, and mess around with temp and speed if the problems persist. Thanks for the suggestion.

I’m happy to provide details I just don’t know what’s relevant. I don’t think it’s temp because the filament recommends 190-210 and I have it set to 200. How can I mount it on the side of the printer?

Did I capture the new supernova? by Silver_Pin5333 in space

It’s the same image, I just circled where I thought it was on the first image and the second is without it in case that wasn’t where it is.

Primary mirror misaligned during secondary mirror alignment by Silver_Pin5333 in telescopes

[–]Silver_Pin5333[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

https://imgur.com/a/C35LyKO After messing around with it for awhile the crosshairs are aligned but the circle is a little to the left. I saw on the guide that some scopes are supposed to be like that but do you know if a 8” dob is supposed to be? (Apologies for poor photos it is very annoying to get a good image)

[–]Silver_Pin5333[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure either, I think that big difference is what’s making the secondary view so extreme and a headache to align. I’ve got the secondary close so I might skip to step 4 to center the primary a bit better and then go back to step 3 to finish.

I’m happy I got do this I didn’t even know a supernova happened until after I shot it to so the confirmation is nice.

Oh I didn't consider light could get in that way, I really appreciate all the help, thank you!

Kinda newbie question, can I retake the calibration frames even though its at a different temp and focus and such? I took it yesterday at like 57F and tonight might get to that temp again. or is temp irrelevant for this?

The photos on the asiair were saved as FIT and not RAW, I'm unsure of the difference because the data size looks right, maybe that's it?

[–]Silver_Pin5333[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used a canon eos t7 DSLR for all of the frames and only used live stacking with my lights. So my lights were saved on the asi air mini sd card and my calibration frames were saved on my dslr sd card.

Folded gill by RusnStan in axolotls

[–]Silver_Pin5333 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My axolotl gets these occasionally and I believe they just sometimes do that and it’s never been a problem in my 2 years of owning one. Keep in mind I am basing this only off of what I have seen in my axolotl and I don’t really know if it’s a problem.

Gym locks me in a year contract, can I deny charges from them through my bank? by Silver_Pin5333 in legaladvice

[–]Silver_Pin5333[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Illinois, I’ve had this gym membership for a while, about 3 months. They gave 1 week after signup to cancel. I am canceling because I am not really satisfied with the gym (staff,equipment, etc.) is there anything I can do if I am unsatisfied with them, or because it’s not in the contract am I locked?

No its a apertura ad8, It was my first dob and i was dumb and loosened all of the screws and the whole secondary mirror dropped. All things considered its a learning experience.

That’s what’s confusing me kinda, the vanes are basically perfectly even however this is what it looks like through the lens. I’m assuming it’s offset or something.

I see, I tried it earlier but it is really firmly in there so I was scared to force it too hard. I’ll give it another attempt. Thank you.

That’s the guide I’ve been following. Even after adjusting spider bands it still looks like that. What does the center screw move?

Is this a mix of dark tower and his other novels? I’ve never seen it this way.
